1. Choose your focus

This is the focus controller. Use this controller to choose your primary development approach (Cascades or Core).

By selecting a focus, you get to decide what content should be front and center on the site.

Before you start developing, you'll need to visit the Downloads tab. Here you'll find downloads for the BlackBerry 10 Native SDK, BlackBerry 10 Device Simulator, and some other useful tools.

3. Try the sample apps

Now featuring a filter control, the Sample apps tab allows you to search for samples by name or by feature.

Select either the Core or Cascades check boxes to display the samples relevant to your focus.
